SCSI Setup
Consider these factors when connecting your tape drive to the SCSI bus:
a.
If the tape drive will be the only device connected to the SCSI bus,
attach the enclosed terminator to the upper SCSI connector on the
back of the drive. (Refer to illustration on page 3.)
The SCSI bus must be terminated at each end. The controller pro-
vides termination at one end, and the last device connected to the
bus must be terminated to complete the SCSI chain.
b.
If you are inserting the tape drive into a SCSI daisy chain, ensure
that the last device on the chain is terminated properly.
c.
Each device (external or internal) attached to the SCSI bus must
have a unique SCSI ID. If necessary, change the SCSI ID of your
tape drive using the SCSI ID switch on the back of the drive.
The tape drive’s pre-set SCSI ID is 3. Change it if necessary.
! Do not use SCSI ID 7. It is typically used by the SCSI card.
